Abstract: A method and apparatus for stimulating heavy oil production from an oil bearing formation. The method includes the steps of placing a downhole heater in the formation adjacent to the oil producing zone to heat heat transfer fluid and then energizing the downhole heater. The method further includes the step of passing the heat transfer fluid through the heater to heat the heat transfer fluid and then injecting the heat transfer fluid into the oil bearing formation. This brings the heated fluid into contact with the oil to increase the flowability by decreasing the effective viscosity of the oil. In this manner, an oil extraction chamber can be quickly formed in the oil bearing formation. In another aspect of the invention, the apparatus, includes a source of energy and flow through heater connected to the source of energy. The flow through heater is attached to the end of coil tubing, and placed downhole. The apparatus further includes a control system for monitoring the heater, a source of injection fluid, a pump to inject the injection fluid and a pressure reducer on the exit of the heater, to maintain fluid pressure in the heater for efficient heat transfer.

Abstract: The invention relates to an interworking function apparatus (IWF), a method and an arrangement for establishing a mobile-terminating call in a mobile communications network when the call is received from a calling party via a fixed network without any signalling support which provides information on the protocol employed by the calling party. In the invention, a service is assigned only one directory number, which is common to all the protocols employed by the service. The protocol identifier in a service definition linked with this directory number has a neutral (undefined) value or may be interpreted as neutral. The IWF, upon receiving the neutral RA parameter (Step 2), is switched onto the line and monitors a traffic channel received from the fixed network in order to identify the protocol employed by the calling terminal equipment (Steps 54-57). After identifying the protocol, the IWF is configured according to the identified protocol (Steps 58-60 or 61-63), and data transfer may begin (Step 64).

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un codeur utilisant une logique de type "alpha-map". Ce codeur est constitué de plusieurs éléments fonctionnels. Un premier circuit d'échantillonnage (21) code des signaux de type "alpha-map" indiquant la forme et la position à l'écran d'un objet en utilisant un coefficient de réduction régi par une information de coefficient de conversion de taille. Un circuit de restitution (23) restitue un signal "alpha-map" échantillonné de façon à ramener le signal à sa taille d'origine en utilisant un coefficient d'agrandissement régi par une information "coefficient de conversion de taille". Ce circuit de restitution donne en sortie un signal "alpha-map" décodé localement. Un circuit de prédiction de compensation du mouvement (25) génère un signal de prédiction de compensation du mouvement à partir du signal de l'image reproduite précédente, le signal de l'image reproduite précédente issue du circuit d'échantillonnage (21), et un signal de vecteur de mouvement. Un second circuit d'échantillonnage (26) échantillonne le signal de prédiction de compensation du mouvement en utilisant un coefficient de réduction défini. Un circuit de codage d'image binaire, qui code le signal "alpha-map" au moyen du premier circuit d'échantillonnage (21), donne en sortie une image binaire prenant en compte le signal de prédiction de compensation du mouvement échantillonné par le circuit d'échantillonnage (26). Ce circuit de codage d'image binaire donne en sortie le signal codé d'image binaire. Enfin, un circuit de multiplexage multiplexe et donne en sortie le signal codé d'image binaire ainsi que l'information "coefficient d'agrandissement".

Title: Vsb mode detection system with comb filter
Inventor: KRISHNAMURTHY GOPALAN
IPC: H04N5/44
Filed: 1997-05-28
Granted: 2000-11-28
Abstract: A VSB mode detection circuit (22) with a comb filter (20) solves the potential problem of lockout in a situation where a VSB mode signal is being received, with the comb filter being effective, and a change in signal mode suddenly occurs. The arrangement inhibits the first two bytes of the three byte mode information, which two bytes are unspecified for all except the 8 VSB  terrestrial mode, and replaces them with zero data. In another embodiment, the 12 symbol delay in the comb filter is bypassed with the complement of the input data for the third byte. When the 8 VSB terrestrial mode has been confidently determined to exist, the inhibition of the first and second bytes (and the inversion of the bypassed third byte) is removed in alternate fields to permit normal comb filter operation.

Title: Dual mode panel
Inventor: PARKER JAMES
IPC: G08B25/14
Filed: 1999-01-05
Granted: 2003-08-05
Abstract: A dual mode alarm control panel includes a sensing arrangement for determining conditions of the environment in which the panel is installed. The results of the environmental assessment are used to determine an operating mode of the panel. In a first mode the panel is fully functional, and in a second mode the functions of the panel are restricted. This process assists in operating alarm control panels in an environment corresponding to the assumed design environment. In this way, non-compliance or operating alarm panels in unsuitable environments is reduced or avoided.

Abstract: A masonry culvert is formed from channel shaped components, including bottom components and inverted top components. The bottom components connect together end to end to form an upwardly open channel, while the top components connect end to end on top of the bottom components to complete the culvert. The reduced height culvert components are easier to handle and transport than full height components. They are more readily manufactured by casting them as inverted channels over a permanent mould core using movable end pieces and side panels. The cast component can be lifted directly off the core without the need to dismantle the core from the interior of a box-shaped culvert section.
